Flexion (NASDAQ: FLEXM) has partnered with Nexters Global, part of GDEV, to expand the reach of its flagship title, Hero Wars: Alliance, across alternative app stores. The mid-core RPG is set to launch on platforms including the Amazon Appstore, Samsung Galaxy Store, Samsung Instant Play, Xiaomi GetApps, Epic Games Store, and ONE store during Q2 2026.

Hero Wars: Alliance continues to rank among the top 60 highest-grossing titles on Google Play, further strengthening Flexion’s portfolio of globally successful games.

Jens Lauritzson, CEO of Flexion, said: “Nexters has a proven hit with Hero Wars: Alliance. Our role is to take that existing success and generate more revenue by reaching users in the alternative stores. We don’t just handle updates and marketing; we provide the full infrastructure and services to ensure a game performs at its peak on every platform.”

Olga Egoshina, Director of Business Development at Nexters, added: “We built this game to last. If you limit yourself to one or two big stores, you miss out on a massive audience using other markets. Flexion lets us expand into those spaces without the typical upfront costs or effort. It is a low-risk way to quickly grow our revenue and player base while Flexion handles the messy technical work.”

Flexion manages the full process of bringing games to alternative distribution channels, offering a combination of proprietary technology and operational services. On average, the company delivers more than 10% in additional revenue for its partners, with a portfolio that includes 35 top-grossing titles, four of which rank in the global top 10.

Its service offering includes full integration and platform management, tailored marketing strategies, technical support with rapid updates, and access to curated store placements. As developers increasingly seek higher margins and diversified revenue streams, Flexion’s model allows studios to unlock additional income without the typical operational burden.

Hero Wars: Alliance is a free-to-play mobile strategy RPG set in the fantasy world of Dominion, where players collect and upgrade heroes, build team synergies, and compete across campaign missions, PvP arenas, and large-scale guild wars.

Trophy Hunter has unveiled Night Hunt, a new feature that transforms familiar hunting arenas into high-stakes environments after dark. The latest update introduces a weekly cycle of nighttime events, exclusive nocturnal animals, and fresh gameplay conditions designed to challenge players to rethink their strategies.

“Night Hunt is an important step in the development of Trophy Hunter. By transforming familiar hunting arenas into challenging nighttime environments, the feature introduces a new gameplay layer and effectively expands the game with additional hunting grounds and competitive opportunities,” said Jakub Noganowicz, Product Owner of Trophy Hunter and Hunting Clash. “Players enjoy club-based competition, but individual achievements are equally important. Night Hunt gives players new ways to challenge themselves, earn recognition, and test their hunting skills in a completely new environment.”

Weekly events bring a new competitive rhythm

Night Hunt introduces a structured schedule of limited-time weekly events. The mode unlocks for players who have progressed through the early stages and completed duels across the first five arenas, ensuring they are fully familiar with core mechanics before taking on the challenge.

Access to Night Hunt is based on a ticket system. Players receive three free tickets daily, with an additional ticket available via a rewarded video ad. More tickets can be purchased, allowing unlimited participation while supporting the game’s live-ops and monetisation systems.

Each week, a different arena becomes the setting for nighttime hunts. Reduced visibility and increased difficulty significantly alter gameplay dynamics, while exclusive night-only animals add variety. To help players adapt, epic weapons are enhanced with a thermal vision trait, improving precision in low-light conditions.

These recurring events create a steady loop of challenges and rewards, encouraging regular engagement while expanding the game’s live-ops layer.

Achievement badges reward top performers

The update also strengthens Trophy Hunter’s competitive edge with new achievement-based rewards. During Night Hunt events, players compete in duels, earn event currency, and unlock rewards by reaching key milestones.

Multiple rankings track performance across metrics such as highest score, shot accuracy, and winning streaks. Top-performing players are awarded exclusive badges, which become permanent additions to their profiles and can be showcased to others.

Continuing to expand the game world

Since its global launch, Trophy Hunter has continued to evolve with regular content updates. New arenas are introduced at least once a month, bringing fresh environments and tactical challenges. The latest addition, released on February 27, brings the total number of arenas to 18.

Alongside new locations, the game continues to develop both social and individual gameplay experiences. Features like Club Race enhance team-based competition, while Night Hunt adds a new layer focused on individual skill, progression, and personal achievement—encouraging players to revisit familiar locations under more demanding conditions and driving deeper engagement.
